Scientific paper

The origin of the observed wave spectrum for hot gas in the ISM is considered theoretically. The governing equations for the generation, propagation, and dissipation of compressive waves are reviewed, and particular attention is given to the heating of warm neutral gas and the implications for radio-wave scattering. It is shown that little power from interactions between SN shocks and hot coronal gas reaches short wavelengths, and that scintillation probably does not originate in a warm weakly ionized gas.
